Why did you become a therapist, and what motivates you to continue?

I have always been drawn to helping others.

For people that are hesitant to try therapy, what do you wish you could tell them?

Even therapists, have therapists.

What should people thinking about working with you, know about you?

I know how hard reaching out for support can be and give you the utmost appreciation for having the emotional flexibility to explore that!

Why is trauma processing important?

I believe that we can't start healing, until we start feeling.

How do you work with clients with addiction?

I like to meet people where they are at and create a personalized approach to support their short-term and long-term goals.
